Projects Overview
A project is the top-level organizer for your design work. Think of it like a folder for a campaign, product, or client — it holds one or more templates that share a purpose.
The Project Picker
Section titled “The Project Picker”When no project is open, the Designer shows the Project Picker — a list of all your recent projects. Click the logo in the header to get back to it from a project.
Inside the editor you don’t need to leave to switch: click the project name in the header breadcrumb (or press ⌘O / Ctrl+O) to open the project menu with your recent projects. Its All projects… entry opens this same list in a dialog. Both lists have a Search projects box that filters the loaded projects by name.
From here you can:
- Open a project by clicking its name.
- Rename a project (pencil icon on hover).
- Share or unshare it (people icon to share, lock icon to make private; team workspaces only, on projects you created) — see Sharing Projects.
- Delete it (trash icon on hover, confirmation required).
- Create a new project (New Project button).
Private vs Shared
Section titled “Private vs Shared”| Visibility | Who can see it |
|---|---|
| Private (default) | Only you (the creator) |
| Shared | All members of your team workspace can view it; only the creator can edit or delete its templates |
Links and reopening
Section titled “Links and reopening”Each project and each saved template has its own address in the browser’s address bar. Bookmark it to come back later, or share it with members of your workspace: opening the link takes them to that project, or straight to that template inside its project. Renaming a project or template doesn’t change its address.
The browser’s Back button returns to the previous page: from a template to the project overview, and from a project to the project list. Switching between template tabs inside a project doesn’t add Back steps.
When you reopen a project in the same browser, whether from the switcher, the project list, a link or a page refresh, the templates you had open come back as tabs, and the one you were on is shown again. If you were on the overview, the overview shows. Unsaved changes are not kept: each template shows as it was last saved. The first time you open a project in a browser, it opens on its overview.
Empty state
Section titled “Empty state”A new or empty project shows the empty-project screen with two options: New template and From library.
